I discovered your channel two months ago. I watch one episode each day. It is impossible to express how you (and Finn) have changed my life. When I hear that beautiful piano introduction a surge of emotional bliss overwhelms me. When you describe the beautiful scenery with words like gorgeous, exciting, amazing, stunning, spectacular, and bliss in that wonderful accent, it makes me feel cheerful for the rest of the day. Please continue to make your videos in the same format. With grateful thanks.
This is Kevin Clements. Thanks so much for taking the time to share your beloved Cumbria . S.T. Coleridge penned a poem named Hymn before Sunrise which a poet friend tells us was actually written after Coleridge experienced a moment of terror as he found himself trapped on a cliff while climbing Scafell Pike alone . Fear and epiphany both came in the same moment as he was forced to notice the sky , clouds , and crags which he found himself surrounded by . I too had such an experience while climbing . thx , Kevin Clements
Finn is very brave. Please get him a proper padded coat and maybe boots? I don’t know because I never wanted my doggie Jack Russell wearing them. But it must have been too cold for poor Finn 😔give him a hug from us 😃🐶🍗🥓🌭🍖 Thank you for the adventure!
Nice to hear you crunching through the deep snow to the Pike of Blisco, loving the hike. While I'm here I'd like to thank you for the superb photo (Sugar coated) from your selection of Magnificent photography on the web, really happy. Thank you very much. 👍🐾
Hi Glenn, absolutely amazing, what a stunning day and the views as far as the eye could see we’re just beautiful. Young Finneus is just amazing, what a super little doggy. Thanks as always for sharing both your adventures, all the best, Dave 😀🥾⛰🏴❄️
That vid took me back many years , when winters were real . Tbh, I was a bit worried about Finn . I really think it was far too much and she must have got cold feet !!!.
Wow Stunning, we was there this time last year no snow though . We arrived with there being 10,000 herdys , they where popping out the herds lambs , when we left there where 20,000 by the end of the week beautiful.
Absolutely stunning 😍 I’m in the Lakes the week after next and really hope to see at least a little bit of snow, even though I know it will be fantastic whatever the weather 😊
Great video bud fantastic conditions Fin is a superstar shame about the Drone but plenty of great footage....well done Marra 😊 ATVB Andy and ROCK STAR ⭐ 🙏
Just an incredible adventure. You did have me worried about losing Finn down any hills!! They make boots for a small paws like hers?? Looks like she is going to need a big nap after that! Thanks for sharing! Love from the USA!!
A fantastic video Glenn with lovely views. Finn looked like she loved every minute, if ever I get up there I would want her as my guide, she seems to know every inch of the walks. Thanks, Steve.
Another good one this. Did Pike o Blisco and Cold Pike last February, cheated though as parked at top of Wrynose. Did those 2 in the morning then Harter Fell in afternoon. Great day. Watched another channel yesterday Bushman and Blue, they were on Blisco, but slightly windier and not as pretty 😂
What a fantastic winter wonderland. Absolutely stunningly beautiful scenery from all angles. Little Finn what a superhero caped crusader she is. She's a little gem and at eleven years of age don't you think she's ready for her bus pass?🐶💕🐕💕 Thanks for sharing this heartwarming video on a cold winters day. Much appreciated.
Beautiful 😍 Some spectacular and intimate views of the Crinkles, Bowfell and the Furness Fells. All fells I have yet to do🙏 Very much looking forward to Scafell. Hopefully with a bit of Lord's Rake action...? 🤞
❤❤❤ Beautiful. Love the snow. I love Finn. She reminds me of my dogs so much. 2 of my Jack Russells/Parsons Russells came from the Windermere farms in England. I have Tobe, Leena & Piper. I love the name Finn. They hate their clothes also 😂😂 She's adorable 😍 Stay safe & warm!
Breathtaking - I have only experienced The Lakes in the snow a few times and loved it. Pillar from Buttermere and Striding edge must do’s for those seeking adventure. Can’t believe that was the road. Blea tarn used to be covered in those pines hopefully they (LDNP) will plant some more. I laughed at PoB summit when said the best view. I have an awesome photo in the snow looking over to Rossett pike crinkles, esk in the snow. It’s’ one of my fav summits although those large flat rock sections at the top are annoying at times. probably should have had your ice axe for the descent but you know that 🤭 Finn did well. So glad to see you back in the mountains where you belong. 😅 what a cracking route. Bet you slept well!
What great conditions! I missed it.... Browney Gill does look good. I did a vid of Crinkle Gill this year but needed a little more scramble for my taste 😅. ... Just awesome day on those tops you had. Took me there for sure 👍
Another fantastic Sunday video, awww we love little fin 🐶❤. These videos are definitely, such an inspiration to get out and get moving. Was out with buds 🐺 today trying to plan our route up onto pen-cerrig clach from another side of the range. But found another mountain ⛰️ I want to do as well, this channel is addictive 😁
Another great day out Glenn and what I particularly found informative was the way you told of the conditions, equipment and mind-set for walking in full winter conditions. Some can come across as condescending but you explained it extremely well, so that those not familiar with such conditions could take some lessons without feeling that they are being judged. Must admit though that I was surprised that you didn't have an axe but micro spikes in those conditions, spot on even though I'm not a lover. Top film once again and such days only come along rarely in a winter. Cheers bud,
Great video again glen enjoyed it a lot , finn is a bit special, hats off that looked hardwork in snow, i will be tuning in again next week for the big one , enjoy that beet you earned it ❤❤ Rave on mate,
Such a beautiful video (again). Utterly absorbed throughout.. So happy you’re back on the high fells again. 🙂 Hope little Finny had a good night’s sleep and woke up none the worse for wear. Thank you , and can’t wait until the next video! xxx
Hi mate, We must have missed each other by minutes. I was camping at Great Langdale (in a pod) and headed up to Stickle tarn before grabbing a pint in the ODG. Right back to the video 🍺
Can you post the type of spikes you're using please? I have full crampons which are great when needed, but some spikes would be a useful addition.... Thanks!!
Great video Glen,don't like to be critical but a walking pole or axe would have made life a lot easier. As you said you never know what to expect. Regards Anthony
What a beautiful place. I grew up in New England and I felt for for your ankles. I've come home from many a trek with scraped up ankles and calves from conditions like that. I love watching your videos before I go to bed. They are not boring me to sleep but they relax me, but then I want to watch another, and another and another and I don't get to sleep anyway. What a lovely kitchen you have
Wooow, as usual, totally stunning scenery with Glenn's marvelous voice and utterly adorable Finfinn who was doing amazingly considering how cold her little feet must have been, she's such a little trooper and she blended in the snowy landscape had it not been for her Hi-viz. Nothing better than a relaxing beautiful Black Crag video on a Sunday evening, before facing the grim reality of work on Monday ❤
Afternoon Craig And thank you for a lovely snowy walk with fin look like she enjoyed herself to bless I love the walks you go on but I don’t think I could do the snow one so thank you for the walk Craig will be looking forward to the next one trace 😊
Another superb film Glenn, definitely got me wanting to do some filming over in the Lakes, even though my channel is more of a Lancs walks theme. Great to see you walking up Great Hill on one of your other videos! Local spot for me.
Phenomenal video thank you so very much, absolutely loved it!!! One of your best ever!!! Finn did so well and I loved the Guiness pour at the end!!! Really Really Stunning !! (remember the crampons and ice axe next time - safety first!!)
Absolutely brilliant video again Glenn, love the way you talk to the Herdies!!!!! Such a great walk that, you can't beat getting up there early and Beating the crowds.... 👌 Thank you. 🙏Xx
Heaven indeed! BTW, dont know if this is true or if even works, but I remember someone said that its a good idea to blow air back into the tube once you are done drinking, so there is no water which could freeze.
No place I’d rather be… Finn would rather be at home in front of the fire… me and Lou are thinking - beach in Barbados might give it a close run for its money 😂 Great video Glenn as ever. I’m camping in Eskdale/Wasdale for three days solo this weekend, really hoping the weather isn’t as crap as it is forecast 🤞🏼🤷🏻♂️ There’s always The Boot 😀🍻
I have a suggestion... your videos of land scapes and pictures are amazing and so is your editing. Maybe try a silent "relaxing" video with soft music a collaboration of your best pieces it would go down a treat on this platform I know I'd love it
I loved winter yomps in the hills. This is a fantastic reminder of my time on the fells. Thank you so much for all you do , and the Fin meister too bless her.
